AN OLD-FASHIONED GARDEN, by PEARL PRISCILLA SMITH First Line: There's an old-fashioned garden Last Line: That comes back to me! Subject(s): Gardens & Gardening | ||||||||
There's an old-fashioned garden Near an old-fashioned home; In that old-fashioned garden -- In fancy -- I roam. Those sweet-smelling roses; That columbine rare; And the face -- of my mother -- Are all mingled there In a picture that memory Has painted I see An old-fashioned garden -- A rose-bowered garden -- That comes back to me! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NOVEMBER GARDEN: AN ELEGY by ANDREW HUDGINS AN ENGLISH GARDEN IN AUSTRIA (SEEN AFTER DER ROSENKAVALIER) by RANDALL JARRELL ACROSS THE BROWN RIVER by GALWAY KINNELL A DESERTED GARDEN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS NOT THE SWEET CICELY OF GERARDES HERBALL by MARGARET AVISON AN OLD GARDEN by HERBERT BASHFORD DOMESDAY BOOK: CONSIDER FREELAND by EDGAR LEE MASTERS |
